... but since I haven't yet ordered the cable/battery its very hard to follow along. I'm picking up a DCAN/OBDII cable to put a new battery in my 2008 335i, and want to make sure I can use it and the software that's out there to both program and register the battery.

... however it has different specs than the OEM battery (760 Cold Cranking Amps). The thread above (post 2) states the process is only for OEM batteries. What would I do differently? Is there a "how-to" for non OEM battery replacement?

Thanks!

You have to code the closest amps in klasse_batterie under the CAS module. After that open up tool32 I believe and follow the new battery registration like normal. There is a guide around here somewhere
